The available evidence indicates that JFK and RFK put a stop to the attempts on Castro as soon as it came to their knowledge. Not only were these attempts initiated before they took office but their attempts to stop them were ignored by William Harvey, the CIA man in charge. Harvey even kept his boss, the new director, McCone, in the dark about these attempts and the CIA/Mafia linkages.

Some of these operatives acted as though they were a law onto themselves and answerable to no one. They are the ones who assembled the Mafia team for the Castro hit and it was from that team that the killers of JFK were to come. However, I believe that the mob would have never allowed this to happen had it not been sure that a coverup would keep the truth from coming out. Otherwise the revelation that the Mafia had killed the President of the United States would have meant a full scale all out attack by the US upon it. One that would have been even worse than what it was undergoing at the hands of RFK which was already massive in scale.

J. Eddgar Hoover was owned by the Mob. It is well documented that he had extensive dealings with Frank Costello.

Really? I have read exactly the opposite, that they were desperate to kill Castro and pushed the CIA to do so, hence Operation ZR/Rifle. I read about this in The Dark Side of Camelot.
